Indie publisher Team17 today announced the signing of Florida based independent developer Steamroller Studios’ forth coming release Deadwood: The Forgotten Curse.
“Everyone here at Steamroller Studios is super excited to be partnering with Team17. We’re confident that together we’ll make Deadwood: The Forgotten Curse the game we’ve always wanted to make,” said Keith Lackey, Technical Supervisor at Steamroller Studios.
Deadwood: The Forgotten Curse is an action/adventure game with a unique survival twist. You play as Lathe, a teenage woodling and an avid inventor. During your adventure you are accompanied by a stone giant named Roguard and together you must fight back a horde of wooden zombies, better known as “The Deadwood”, and stop their curse from spreading through the land of Knottington.
By day, Roguard will protect you from the Deadwood allowing you the freedom to explore the land of Knottington. You’ll scavenge for resources and then use those resources to craft your weapons and defenses because when the sun sets, Roguard falls fast asleep leaving you alone to fight back the Deadwood and protect your stone companion. With the right balance of strategy and skill you may just survive the night.
This Action/Adventure title will be for PC, Mac, Linux, PS4, and XBox One. It does not yet have a set release date, but we’ll keep you posted!
